When trying to watch a movie via apple tv how can you stop it having to download each time and using up all my internet data?
I have bought movies from itunes and now they are on my computer why is it that each time I try to watch the movie it re downloads and uses up all my internet data? How do I prevent this and make it so it just plays from my stored version on my computer hard drive? Please help.
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Watch it from Computers > movies and not movies > purchased.

HT204088 How do I verify a purchase in itunes when trying to rent a movie via apple tv?
How do I verify a purchase in itunes when trying to rent a movie via apple tv?
I have simply re-entered my credit card data after making the movie selection. It is a big nuisance to pull out the card and enter the numbers etc. including the 3 digit code. There must be a way to save the data for the Apple TV, but I have only had it for a few days and haven't figured it out.

When trying to rent a movie from Apple TV, I'm asked to verify my payment method. I don't have a credit card but I do have over $100 dollars in iTunes store credit. How do I get passed this in order to be able to rent movies again?

Yes, there is tax. -
Macbook Pro says plug in failure when trying to watch a movie
My Macbook Pro says plug in failure when trying to watch a movie.
This did not work and I'm glad that I only paid for the cheapest plan on macupdate.com. For other people that view this discussion, after a couple of days of trying things and then viewing a couple of other discussions, what worked for me was uninstalling my Silverlight and then reinstalling it. Thanks for everyones input !!!!

When you make a Apple ID how can you choose none for credit card type
When you make a Apple ID how can you choose none for credit card type
You need to follow the instructions on this page when creating a new account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534 - otherwise you won't get the 'none' option and you will need to enter credit card details before you will be able to use the account in the store

When click the email icon on my iphone, it opens on one email only. I can not go to the next or previous email, a different email or anything. It only gives me the option to move that email! How can I stop this. Its been working perfectly well before!
Now as you may know there is some icons at the bottom of the mail app, at the top left conner you should have the inbox button and on the upper right conner you should have two arrows to shift between emails. If any of those options works try :
Settings>General>Reset>Reset all Settings
If that does not work try to re add the account
Last but not least, restore as new.
Hope that helps. -
In iMovie 11, how can you cut/paste a clip that has subtitles and actually have the subtitles get cut/pasted. When I try, the subtitles disappear into the void and I have to do the subtitling all over again.
If you think this is a bug, you can report it here:

How can I set screen saver clock which show time and date when all screen is black. Other phones have this option but I didn't find on iphone. Pl guide.
HA! I figured the find my iphone out!!!!! You can have more than one icloud account in "Mail, Contacts and Calendars". So my husband's & kids' phone icloud account under "settings, icloud "is their individual @me.com account. Set it to everything you want EXCEPT Find My Iphone. Then under "settings, mail/contacts/calendars" you set up both accounts (your @me.com which may already be there), then add another with the main appleID and enable ONLY Find My Iphone. Now when any of us log into Find My Iphone from any device with our main apple ID for the app store, all the devices show up!!!! YIPPEE. I made my own day!
I think the message I got previously was because I hadn't disabled the find my iphone on the @me.com account first. -

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

Both my iphone and my husbands iphone ring at the same time when only one of us is being called. How can I stop this from happening?
This post has already been answered. Why are you plugging your own site with an answer that has already been given? Not to mention that the information you are handing out is incorrect. There is no bug, there is no patch, and no one needs to delete any email addresses. If you take the time to read the posts with the correct answers, you will see that the solution is totally different than the erroneous one you have posted.

My mac book air e-mail is trying to upgrade but it has frozen. How can I stop the upgrade as I cannot open my e-mail?
This isn't the fault of firefox. Firefox is a web browser, not your email provider. I'd suggest contacting them (whoever you use, gmail, yahoo, etc.) and asking for help.

Hi, We are a physiotherapy practice trying to use i-cal as a clinic diary system for 15 therapists. We need to block out availability of therapists but cant do this? How can you block someones diary out for specific times on i-cal? Any help please..
iCal is designed for personal use, and isn't really meant to handle this sort of situation.
The best suggestion I can offer, though it's a trifle untidy, is: create a calendar for each therapist, giving each a different colour. Enter the availability for each therapist - if it's on a weekly basis you can make them repeating events. Then add the individual appointments, which will show alongside in the daily view. In this example, the 'purple' therapist is available from 1030 to 1700 and has appointments at 1200 and 1500.
If you have more than a few therapists available at any one time it's liable to look a bit messy, but it's the best I can think of at the moment. -
